FindReplace Dialog in SWT Text Widget Standalone App? [message #443067]

Hello,

I've two questions about the SWT Text widget as I am developing a
standalone application using Eclipse.

1. How can I override the keyboard events for some sequences? For
example, I want to perform an action when CTRL-H is pressed but the Text
widget is already acting on CTRL-H as the delete key before I can get
the KeyPress event.

2. I would like to add the Eclipse Find/Replace Dialog into my
standalone application for use within the SWT text widget. How may this
be accomplished?

Thanks,
Chu.

1. Use MenuItem.setAccelerator() to define an action for SWT.MOD1 + 'h'
2. The Find/Replace dialog is not part of SWT. You'll need to write the
dialog yourself or port the code from Eclipse.
